Practical time management

Time management should be done smart way or not done at all.

In this article we share a very powerful insight on the best time management practice.

 

No rush in Estonia.

In Estonia people like to say: “aeg on”, which means “there is always time“. No rush, no hurry. It works nicely till we start our business, become self-employed or get involved in any kind of overwhelming endeavour.

In other words, there is always time till the moment we realise, that we do not have any time at all. That we are constantly behind our schedule.

And at some point we even start to believe, that it is technically impossible to keep our tasks completed within due dates.

So, let’s be realistic and practical. Let us understand, how much time is it over-there.

 

The life of 24 hours.

Someone could say that the entire life is upfront us. And still, there is always a client, with an urgent complicated request to be finished by this particular date. Which is last Monday. And today is Friday…

Somehow our life works in cycles. Spring, summer, fall, winter and spring again. Morning, day, evening, night, morning… The pattern is clear, right?

So basically, despite all the progress with body-hacking and immortality research, the time, we actually have and can practically use, is one full day.

Which is exactly 24 hours.

Now we get realistic.

Our life is a cycle of 24 hours

720 minutes sounds like a lot.

From 24 hours we tend to sleep around 8 hours, which brings us down to 16 hours. Sometimes we eat, drive, use bathroom, do groceries and stuff. Minus at least 4 hours.

12 hours it is then. Or 720 minutes total.

This is your entire resource we can use for any thoughtful activity. Upon the condition that we can work as machines.

Now we get practical.

 

How to deal with time we do not have.

In the morning we wake up and the first thing we want to realise is that 16 hours is the only life we live.

16 hours is the only life we live.

How to live this life – it is all up to our choices.

Just do it wisely – we will never have enough of that.
